Today is finally the launch day for Benefit's newest product..... Agent Zero Shine.
The idea of Agent Zero Shine is to easily vanish pores and shine in a instant. This baby was designed to work with the famous Uk/Irelands best selling pore minimizing primer.... The "Porefessional" Agent Zero is a lightweight, translucent powder that mattifies the skin while smoothing and minimizing the look of open pores.
Here are my thoughts......
As always the packaging is adorable and easy to use. You simply screw off the top, tap powder into the lid and apply using the built in brush. Easy right?!
The powder is translucent so it will suit most skin tones and feels very light on the skin. I personally don't have oily skin so I don't have any shine to cover so I can't rate it on it's mattifying effect however I do have alot of open pores on my cheeks and it covered them instantly. I wouldn't use this product as a replacement for powder... instead pop it into your handbag and use it for quick touch ups throughout the day.
Agent Zero retails at 33.50 and is definitely worth the price if you have problems with oil or open pores It's small enough to pop into your handbag and the built in brush is very soft and can also be used for bronzing or applying blush so that's another great way to lighten your load......no more crushed powder or heavy brushes.
What do you think? Will you be picking up Agent Zero Shine?
Not sure what to get your loved one for Christmas, fear not.....Here's some of my favourite gifts this year.
